Line 27:
* [[Alter Ego Acting]]: Onika Maraj is her real self, Nicki Minaj is her larger-than-life "Harajuku Barbie" identity, and Roman Zolanski is the angry, twisted version of herself.
* [[A Wild Rapper Appears]]: During “[[David Guetta|Turn Me On]],” she sings everything, except for one, short section, which she raps.
* [[Baby Got Back]]: ''Encourages'' it.
* [[Bi the Way]]
* [[Blatant Lies]]: "Excuse me, I'm sorry, I'm really such a lady..."
Line 70 ⟶ 71:
** "Right Thru Me" samples the opening of [[Joe Satriani]]'s "Always With Me, Always With You."
** ''Anaconda'' samples "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-a-Lot
* [[Screw Yourself]]: Her contribution to [[Kanye West]]'s "Monster" consisted of her "Roman Zolanski" persona tying up her "Barbie" persona [[BDSM]]-style, and then Roman giving Barbie a lap-dance.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Her 2012 Grammys performance of “Roman Holiday” had a brief, ''[[The Exorcist]]''-inspired introduction, which ended with this exchange:
{{quote|'''Priest''': “What's your name, child?”
Line 77 ⟶ 79:
{{quote|"My name is ''Onika''
you can call me ''Nicki''." }}
* [[Stuffy Old Songs About the Buttocks]]:
** "Anaconda" incorporated some of the lyrics from [[Sir Mix-a-Lot]]'s "Baby Got Back", the song being a [[Perspective Flip]] told from the point of view of a woman who ''has'' the behind in question.
** Technically, "Dance (A$$)" was [[Big Sean]]'s song, with Minaji as a guest, but she [[Just Here for Godzilla| seriously stole the show]].
* [[Surprisingly Gentle Song]]: Several. If not outright peaceful, quite a few songs lack the distinctly harsh, sharp edge in vocals and instrumentation that many people have come to expect from her.
* [[Take That]]: "Roman's Revenge", which takes some pretty blatant shots at [[Lil' Kim]].
